For AW24, beaded jewelry pieces were spotted on the runways of designers such as Isabel Marant, Ferragamo and Carven. Adorning necklines, but also hanging from bags and phones; the look is boho-inspired, quirky, and versatile.  Such jewellery is nothing new, ancient civilizations from the Egyptians to Byzantinians wore beaded designs as decorative pieces and as symbols of wealth and status.
